PM said to warn Israel will be forced to decide who gets a respirator if infection rate continues
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Netanyahu told government ministers during a cabinet meeting overnight that if the current pace of new coronavirus infections continues, Israel will have to decide who to administer artificial respiration to, Channel 12 reports.
“If the current pace of infection continues for another 15 days [that is, with the number of cases doubling every three days ], we’ll find ourselves in a situation where we’ll have to decide who to put on ventilators and who not,” he is quoted saying, apparently because there will be insufficient ventilators for all who need them.
